2. The Floating Flower Market (Bloemenmarkt)
This is the world’s only floating flower market. The colorful stalls along the Singel canal are full of tulips, souvenirs, and classic Amsterdam charm.
📍 Location: Bloemenmarkt on Google Maps
⏰ Best time: Late morning light
3. Jordaan Canal Views
The Jordaan neighborhood is packed with peaceful canals, arched bridges, and ivy-covered buildings. It’s less crowded than the center and full of cozy side streets.
Some of the best photo spots? Try Bloemgracht and Egelantiersgracht.
4. Rijksmuseum Tunnel
The arched tunnel beneath the Rijksmuseum is a striking photo spot — and you can bike straight through it. The mix of bikes, light, and history makes it one of the city’s most iconic frames.
Tip: Go early to beat the crowds and catch the morning light.
5. The Skinny Bridge (Magere Brug)
This white wooden drawbridge over the Amstel River is a classic. It lights up beautifully at night, but it’s just as photogenic during the day — especially with bikes crossing in the background.
📍 Location: Magere Brug on Google Maps
6. Flagship’s Tulip Boat Tour
A tulip-filled boat cruise? That’s a photo you won’t forget. Flagship Amsterdam runs springtime tulip-themed boat tours with flowers, drinks, and live guides — the perfect combo of beauty and relaxation.
The flower setup on the boat makes it one of the most colorful and shareable canal shots in the city.
7. Begijnhof Courtyard
Tucked away behind a wooden door near Spui, Begijnhof is a quiet, hidden courtyard filled with history and charm. It’s one of the oldest spots in the city — and one of the most peaceful.

8. Brouwersgracht Canal
One of the prettiest streets in Amsterdam, Brouwersgracht has wide bridges, green trees, and some of the most scenic canal views in the city.
Perfect for golden hour or quiet morning shots.
9. De Negen Straatjes (The 9 Streets)
This area is full of quirky shops, vintage signs, stylish cafés, and pretty bridges. Every corner has something cool to capture, especially with bikes parked along the canal.
Ride slowly through and keep your camera ready.
10. A’DAM Lookout Swing
For the most dramatic shot, take the free ferry across the IJ and head to the A’DAM Tower. Ride the swing at the top for a picture literally above the city. You’ll get skyline views, modern design, and that extra thrill factor.
